You know in some applications u click example settings theres a popup menu, with Ok, Cancel but my question is,
this popup locks the main window u cant access the main window until u pressed(closed) ok or cancel on the setting menu, I need to do that and how do you put only a (X)"close icon" on the top bar thing....?
I really need this, and simple example would really help
Thanks in advance~
they're called modal windows, I don't know anything about B+, but take a look under commands for creating windows and see if there is an option to set it to modal.
Have a look at the Proceed/Notify/Confirm commands. They open these types of requester windows and block the main window. You can create a window with just the 'X' by giving the window a tilebar and making it a 'tool' window.
Use style flags 1+16 as in the example here:
win=CreateWindow("Hello",150,150,200,150,0,16+1)
result=Proceed("choose ..")
WaitEvent
End
Notice out the "Hello" window is blocked whilst the requester window is open.
Thanks gonna try this right away
No good It just pops up 2 thing the tool window and the yes no cancel window and u cant click on the tool window... until u click yes, no cancel ...
Not working..
while WaitEvent()
...
Select EventData()
Case 1
winproj=CreateWindow("Hello",150,150,200,150,0,16+1)
result=Proceed("choose ..")
...
Wend
Is this the sort of thing you want to do or are you trying to create a custom popup window?
win=CreateWindow("Hello",150,150,170,80,0,1)
button=CreateButton("Click me",20,20,100,18,win)
quit=False
Repeat
ev=WaitEvent()
Select ev
Case $401 ; gadget
If EventSource()=button result=Proceed("choose ..")
Case $803 ; close window
quit=True
End Select
Until quit=True
End
Custom, but I think I figured it out,
a simple
win1 = CreateWindow("Hello",150,150,170,80,0,1)
win2 = CreateWindow("Hello2",150,150,170,80,win1,1)
seems to work o.o;
I was able to achive what i wanted from the begining its awesome if anyone wana see it reply to this post I'll make a source code that you can look at it :)
